Welcome to the blog of brad hooper architect. This blog will be used to provide information on past, current and future projects and other matters of interest and concern.
It is somehow fitting that this fast food chain is a sponsor of Clean Up Australia Day given that they contribute a significant amount of the litterthat despoils the planet. Their junk even ends up deep in a state forest. What sort of a moron leaves litter in a place of such beauty?
Government's Bushfire Housing Service was one of ten selected and posted on the websitewewillrebuild.vic.gov.au this week. There are some great designs amongst the ten and hopefully this initiative will assist those who lost their homes on Black Saturday. My design is modest and simple and adaptable to a variety of site conditions from flat to steep and various orientations and may be built from a wide range of materials from sheet cladding through masonry. It can be expanded or contracted and can have a variety of 'hats' other than the simple skillion as shown.
The architectural practice of brad hooper architect was established in 1982 and since then has been involved in the design of several hundred residential projects. Other work has included commmercial, institutional and industrial projects.
This work has been for sites across Australia in cities and regional areas. Sites have been compact inner urban and broad-acre bush. It has been a great experience - I have seen some fantastic places and met some wonderful people - and it's not over yet.
